“It’s certainly with a heavy heart that we announce this,” they wrote. After reminiscing on their short history and thanking their supporters, they added: “One last thing – f*ck the City of Dallas for planning an 11 month construction project costing $3.2 million on the entire street without allocating money for Construction Mitigation like other cities have done in the past.”

The construction he’s referring to is the same construction we wrote about in December. At the time District 14 councilman Philip Kingston said he was working to minimize the impact of the construction as much as possible.

“Staff responded to that pretty well, and people seem to be pretty happy with what they’re hearing about the schedule, so hopefully this turns out in a way that doesn’t hurt businesses,” he told us in December. “We really tried to put some planning around this to make sure it’s done in the most compatible way possible.”
